Is it really just 1 person working on the straciatella project?????? I was under the impression it was a bunch of linux people... that certainly explains the slow development and quietness in this boards.


'blood n gore' is checked and my enemies disapear as soon as they touch the ground. I am using 0.12.1 on top of Ja2 Gold 1.12 with the 1.5 meg official patch.


yesterday I played for 3 hours straight and I've just taken the san mona sam site and everything is rock stable I'm yet to see a major bug (sometimes when I try to order Ira to bandage a prone merc it says not enough AP's but in the cross it reads 11 and she has 16. When I select 2 mercs and have them cross a body of water they seem to get stuck)

This is indeed the best version of JA, when I first red that they were basing SMP on straciatela I was thinking 'great, no directx, optimized for linux they must be joking' how wrong I was.

I think what I have suggested makes a lot of sense and it's stuff that would take 10 seconds to implement. Like not being required to have music.slf and speech.slf that must be like deleting 2 lines of code and putting JA.INI in the same zip as JA2.exe instead of having a my documents folder created and haing to edit that.


What would take longer would be the resolution I suppose.

Schein I've tried the 800x600 mod but it's a straciatella 0.10 executable and it installs in a stand alone folder, hardly what I call optimal.

I fail to see the reason the maker of stracia is so resilent to implement 800x600.

Even 14 inch CRT monitors with 20 years are able to do 800x600 just fine, just months ago I had a really old 14 inch crt, it was crap curved like hell etc it was from the early 90's... even that was able to do 800x600 at a decent refresh rate... so really it can't be an hardware thing. I'd say the vast majority of 1.13 users uses 800x600 since they find this resolution to be the optimal one to run JA, ask anyone who has played it in 800x600 if they would go back to 640.


let's hope the strac maker gets to see this thread and the strac board/development starts gaining momentum coz truly with a few changes I think everyone who plays JA would flock to this version
